'''Nam'ta''' was a [[Gas giant/Legends|gas giant]] located in the [[Nam'ta system]], a part of the [[Outer Rim Territories/Legends|Outer Rim Territories]]' [[Atrivis sector/Legends|Atrivis sector]]. Its clouds formed bands of [[Color/Legends|red]], orange, and white. The [[Planet/Legends|planet]] was inhabited during the [[Galactic War]] between the [[Galactic Republic/Legends|Galactic Republic]] and the [[Sith Empire (Post–Great Hyperspace War)|resurgent Sith Empire]], and governed by a [[Nam'ta government|local government]]. At that [[Time/Legends|time]] a [[Unidentified organization (Nam'ta)|local organization]] planned to leak thousands of Republic [[Diplomat/Legends|diplomatic]] dispatches, prompting a Republic-allied individual to urge the local government to clamp down on the organization.

==Description==
Nam'ta was a [[Gas giant/Legends|gas giant]], with clouds that formed bands of [[Color/Legends|red]], orange, and white coloration. The gas giant was located in the [[Nam'ta system]] of the [[Atrivis sector/Legends|Atrivis sector]], part of the [[Outer Rim Territories/Legends|Outer Rim Territories]].<ref name="SWR" /> It was located on the [[Relgim Run/Legends|Relgim Run]], a [[hyperlane]] that traversed the Atrivis [[Sector/Legends|sector]] after branching off the [[Braxant Run/Legends|Braxant Run]]. Nam'ta was bracketed on the hyperlane by the [[Markbee's Star system]] on its [[Core Worlds/Legends|Coreward]] side and the [[Horuz system]] on its Rimward side.<ref name="Atlas" />

==History==
Nam'ta was inhabited and had its own [[Nam'ta government|government]] by the [[Time/Legends|time]] of the [[Galactic War]] between the [[Galactic Republic/Legends|Galactic Republic]] and the [[Sith Empire (Post–Great Hyperspace War)|resurgent Sith Empire]].<ref name="SWTOR" /> Around [[3643 BBY]],<ref name="date">{{TOR_dates|1}} This article uses the date of 3643 [[Galactic Standard Calendar|BBY]] as an approximate date, but the actual date could be different.</ref> an [[Unidentified organization (Nam'ta)|independent organization]] that was based on the [[Planet/Legends|planet]] claimed that it had received thousands of Republic [[Diplomat/Legends|diplomatic]] [[Holorecorder/Legends|holorecords]] and was planning to release the information contained within to the [[HoloNet/Legends|HoloNet]].<ref name="SWTOR" />

{{Gamemechanics}}
An individual affiliated with the Republic visited Nam'ta at that time and convinced the local government to repress the organization.<ref name="SWTOR" />
{{Endgame}}

Thousands of years later, during the [[Galactic Civil War/Legends|Galactic Civil War]], Nam'ta was located within the territory of the [[Pentastar Alignment]], controlled by [[Grand Moff/Legends|Grand Moff]] [[Ardus Kaine]].<ref name="Atlas" />

==Behind the scenes==
===Notable appearances===
Nam'ta was created for the [[1998]] [[Video game|PC game]] [[Star Wars: Rebellion (video game)|''Star Wars: Rebellion'']] and was notable in that it was the only planet original to the game.<ref name="Galaxy Map Discussion">{{SWBoards|url=thread.jspa?threadID=118855&start=15|thread=Galaxy Map Discussion|user=[[Daniel Wallace|Dan Wallace]]|date=[[May 2]], [[2003]]|time=1:03 PM|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/http://forums.starwars.com/thread.jspa?threadID=118855&start=15|quote=But as Tasty Taste points out, there's no reason why a planet created for Rebellion couldn't also exist as a planet in the "real galaxy," and its position on the Rebellion map might offer clues as to where it would go when placed on the regular map.}}</ref> All other planets in the game had appeared elsewhere in the [[Star Wars Legends|Expanded Universe]]. This, combined with the proliferation of spelling mistakes in the game, makes it possible that the world was intended to be [[Namra]], a gas giant in the [[Bacrana system]].<ref name="Flashpoint!">''[[Flashpoint! Brak Sector]]''</ref> ''Star Wars: Rebellion'' uses a generic image to represent Nam'ta; this image also represents [[Annaj/Legends|Annaj]], [[Bespin/Legends|Bespin]], and [[Engira]] in the game. Within the ''Star Wars: Rebellion'' in-game encyclopedia entry for Nam'ta, the Atrivis sector is mistakenly spelled as "Artivis."

Nam'ta was later mentioned in ''[[Star Wars: The Old Republic]]'', a [[Video game|massively multiplayer online roleplaying game]] developed by [[BioWare]] and released in [[2011]]. The game's situation on the planet was used as a possible location for Republic-aligned players to assign one of their companions on individual quests.

===''Star Wars: Rebellion'' cartography===
''Star Wars: Rebellion'' provides [[Hyperspace/Legends|hyperspace]] travel [[Time/Legends|times]] between each planet in the game. However, in several instances these times are significantly longer than other [[canon]]ical sources, which seems to reflect the ''Rebellion'' hyperspace times as game mechanics rather than actual figures. Nam'ta's intra-sector hyperspace times and distance from [[Coruscant/Legends|Coruscant]] according to ''Rebellion'' using the game's fastest [[Capital ship/Legends|capital ship]] [[Hyperdrive/Legends|hyperdrives]] are as follows. Note that this chart only includes planets canonically located in the Anoat sector, excepting Coruscant.
